These Impossible Things by Salma El-Wardany
3.0
3.5 stars out of 5.
Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC!
These Impossible Things is a story about three Muslim best friends: Jenna, Kees, and Malak. Their friendship takes a hit early on in the story and from there, they go on different journeys. We follow them over a period of around two years, from school to careers. This book covers a lot. Love, religion and faith, friendship, family, racism, and more. I thought it was well written with characters who had their own distinct personalities and flaws. However, I found it slow at the beginning. Things definitely picked up though and from there, I was invested.
